Why Audiogyan?
Audiogyan believes that theory goes from micro to macro—finding patterns and generalizing to find first principles. With a strong inclination towards art, culture, and design, we are trying to document these wide-ranging conversations, which hopefully can be resourceful for future generations.
Inspired by the maukik parampara (oral tradition) of India. Gyan (knowledge) was transferred from the Guru (teacher) to the Shishya (student) through a series of dialogues. The Shishya use to absorb this knowledge through sharvan parampara. (hearing tradition).
Mission
Inform and help expand understanding of design and art through wide ranging dialogues.
Vision
Document conversations with designers, artists, writers, thinkers, musicians, philosophers, and other luminaries from India.
